FDR DATALINK

Project Context: Sample Flight Data via NASA Dashlink

This application displays data from the Sample Flight Data project via NASA Dashlink (A web-based collaboration tool for those interested in data mining and systems health). Through access to de-identified aggregate flight recorded data, researchers have the ability to proactively identify and analyze trends and target resources to reduce operational risks in the National Airspace System (NAS). This valuable data source enables the aviation community to take positive steps in mitigating potential issues in the system and improving the overall safety of the NAS. The posted files contain actual data recorded onboard a single type of regional jet operating in commercial service over a three-year period. While the files contain detailed aircraft dynamics, system performance, and other engineering parameters, they do not provide any information that can be traced to a particular airline or manufacturer. These records are not part of any airline Flight Operational Quality Assurance (FOQA) program.
